Create HTTP Server in Node.js Without Express | Routing & Serving HTML | Part 6 #nodejs #node #https

Welcome to Part 6 of the Complete Node.js Backend Course by Knowledge Factory 22! 🚀 Before jumping straight into Express.js, every backend developer must understand how Node.js handles web requests under the hood! In this hands-on masterclass, we build a complete HTTP Web Server from scratch using pure, native Node.js—without installing any external frameworks! Understanding native routing, status codes, and serving static HTML files without Express will set your backend fundamentals apart in technical job interviews. 📘 What you will master in this video: Understanding the http Core Module: What an HTTP server actually is and how the Request-Response (req, res) cycle works. Why Learn HTTP Without Express? Understanding native architecture before moving to frameworks. Custom Routing: Implementing URL routing (/, /about, /contact) manually using core JavaScript logic. Handling Status Codes: Sending proper HTTP response headers (200 OK, 404 Not Found, 500 Server Error). Serving Real HTML Files: Using fs read File and the path module to serve home.html directly to the browser. 🔥 PRACTICE TASKS FOR STUDENTS (Comment your code below!): Create about.html and contact.html files and serve them dynamically based on the URL route. Add a new /services route to your native server. Build a custom styled 404 HTML error page! 📝 FREE Premium Code Notes & Blogs: Get the exact source code, native vs Express comparison table, and interview FAQs used in this video on my Hash node blog: https://codeswithpayal.hashnode.dev/ 🔗 Important Links: 👉 Full Node.js Backend Course Playlist:    • Complete Node.js Tutorial with Core JavaSc...   📌 Join the Community on Telegram for Source Code: https://t.me/knowledgefactory_22 ⏳ Video Chapters (Timestamps for Quick Revision): 0:00 - Introduction: Why build an HTTP Server without Express?
